Can somebody tell me why the developers feel the need to charge us for a V1 to V2 update? It seems very greedy in their part.

It saddens me that some believe in "free upgrade" entitlement. Developers are real people like you and me and they need to earn a living. Moreover, Tapatalk iOS app talks to server they host (for push services and account management), which has recurring expenses.

Having said that, some of the solutions require Apple's involvement, such as free upgrade window for recent buyers and discounted pricing for upgraders.

I own and purchased Tapatalk 1 and Tapatalk HD at full price, and purchased Tapatalk 2 for iPhone over the weekend. All in all, I think it is a major upgrade with significant usability improvements. Although some stability issues remain, the app finally looks and feels like a good standing iOS app.

To be accurate, I was not asking for a free upgrade. I was alerted to the new version by an iOS 6 alert. The wording was ambiguous and simply wanted to check. It's only 99c but still, was more interested in following the upgrading process if one existed to avoid account duplications etc.

Anyone getting the app to force close when moving from one forum to another? I usually have three forums on the app. MacRumors, XDA and Android Central. When I switch from one to the others it force closes and have to open the app again.

It crashes often to me, switching forum or sending a reply. Wait for new update
